LYNDHURST — Police have released a sketch of one of the men wanted in a home invasion and kidnapping earlier this week.

The suspect, described as a thin Hispanic male in his twenties, had dark eyes, the owner told police. He stood around 5-foot-9 and weighed around 150 pounds.

Authorities say he and two other assailants broke into the man's township home around 9 p.m. Wednesday, tying up his wife before forcing him outside. The intruders quickly fled the scene after he was able to flag down a passing driver.

According to Lyndhurst police Capt. John Valente, the other two men wore masks during the attack.

Neither the jewelry store owner, his wife, or their adult son, who was also home at the time, were harmed.

Anyone who recognizes the suspect or has other information on the incident is asked to contact Lyndhurst police at (201) 939-2900 ext. 2740. Anonymous tips can also be left at (201) 804-9346.
